4 Na wɔbɔɔ dawuro teaam sɛ, “Nnipa ahodoɔ ne aman ahodoɔ ne kasa ahodoɔ nyinaa montie deɛ ɔhene ahyɛ sɛ monyɛ!
“Inu anthu a mitundu yonse ndi a ziyankhulo zonse, mukulamulidwa kuti muchite izi: mitundu ya anthu ndi a chiyankhulo chilichonse
5 Sɛ mote abɛn, odurugya, sankuo, sankuten, atɛntɛbɛn ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa nnyegyeeɛ a, monkoto fam, na monsɔre ɔhene Nebukadnessar sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni no.

Aliyense amene sadzalambira ndi kupembedza adzaponyedwa nthawi yomweyo mʼngʼanjo ya moto.”
7 Enti, ɛberɛ a wɔtee abɛn, odurugya sankuo, sankuba sankuo, bɛnta, atɛntɛbɛn ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa nnyegyeeɛ no, nnipa no nyinaa ne aman ahodoɔ ne wɔn a wɔka kasa ahodoɔ nyinaa kotoo fam, sɔree ohoni a Ɔhene Nebukadnessar de asi hɔ no.
Choncho anthu onse aja atangomva kulira kwa lipenga, chitoliro, zeze, sansi, chisakasa, mngoli ndi nyimbo za mtundu uliwonse, analambira ndi kupembedza fano la golide limene mfumu Nebukadinezara analiyimika.
8 Nanso, Kaldeafoɔ no bi kɔɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn kɔtoatoa Yudafoɔ no sɛ,
Pa nthawi imeneyi alawuli ena anafika ndi kuwanenera zoyipa Ayuda.
9 “Nana wo nkwa so!
Iwo anati kwa mfumu Nebukadinezara, “Inu mfumu mukhale ndi moyo wautali!
10 Wohyɛɛ mmara maa ɔmanfoɔ sɛ, obiara te abɛn, odurugya sankuo, sankuba sankuo, bɛnta, atɛntɛbɛn ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa nnyegyeeɛ a, ɔnkoto fam, na ɔnsɔre sika ohoni no,
Inu mfumu, mwakhazikitsa lamulo kuti aliyense akamva kulira kwa lipenga, chitoliro, zeze, sansi, chisakasa, mngoli ndi nyimbo za mtundu uliwonse, ayenera kulambira ndi kupembedza fano la golide,
11 na obiara a wantie ankɔto ansɔre ohoni no, wɔde no bɛto fononoo a ogya redɛre framfram wɔ mu no mu.
ndi kuti aliyense osalambira ndi kupembedza adzaponyedwa mʼngʼanjo ya moto.
12 Nanso, Nana, Yudafoɔ bi a wɔn din de Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego a wode wɔn atuatua Babiloniaman ano no abu wo animtia, na wansɔre wʼanyame anaa sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a wode asi hɔ no.”
Koma alipo Ayuda ena Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedinego amene munawayika kuti ayangʼanire ntchito ya dera la ku Babuloni. Anthu amenewa sakumvera inu mfumu. Iwo sakutumikira milungu yanu kapena kulambira fano la golide limene munaliyimikalo.”
13 Ɛhɔ ara, Nebukadnessar bo fuu yie, na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, wɔmfa Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego mmra nʼanim. Wɔde wɔn baeɛ no,
Tsono Nebukadinezara anakwiya ndi kupsa mtima kwambiri, ndipo anayitanitsa Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego. Choncho amuna awa anabwera pamaso pa mfumu,
14 Nebukadnessar bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ, moansɔre mʼanyame ne sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a mede asi hɔ no?
ndipo Nebukadinezara anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndi zoona, Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego, kuti simukutumikira milungu yanga kapena kupembedza fano la golide ndinaliyikalo?
15 Mɛma mo ɛkwan bio. Sɛ mote abɛn, odurugya sankuo, sankuba sankuo, bɛnta, atɛntɛbɛn ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa nnyegyeeɛ no, na mokoto fam, na mosɔre ohoni a mayɛ no a, na me ne mo nni asɛm biara. Na sɛ mopo a, wɔbɛto mo agu fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no mu prɛko pɛ. Sɛ ɛba saa a, nyame bɛn na ɔbɛtumi agye mo afiri me tumi ase?”
Tsopano ngati muli okonzeka kulambira ndi kupembedza fano ndinalipanga, mukangomva kulira kwa lipenga chitoliro, zeze, sansi, chisakasa, mngoli ndi nyimbo za mtundu uliwonse, muchita bwino. Koma ngati simulipembedza, mudzaponyedwa mʼnganjo ya moto. Nanga ndi mulungu uti amene adzatha kukupulumutsani mʼmanja anga?”
16 Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego buaa sɛ, “Ao, Nana Nebukadnessar, yɛnnye nni sɛ ɛho hia sɛ yɛyi yɛn ho ano wɔ wʼanim.
Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego anayankha mfumu Nebukadinezara kuti, “Sikoyenera kuti tikuyankheni pa nkhani imeneyi.
17 Sɛ wɔto yɛn gu fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no mu a, Onyankopɔn a yɛsom no no bɛgye yɛn. Nana, ɔbɛgye yɛn afiri wo tumi ase.
Ngati tiponyedwa mʼngʼanjo ya moto, Mulungu amene timamutumikira akhoza kutipulumutsa ku ngʼanjo yamotoyo, ndipo adzatilanditsa mʼdzanja lanu mfumu.
18 Na sɛ ɛba sɛ wannye yɛn mpo a, Nana nte aseɛ sɛ, sɔre deɛ, yɛrensɔre wʼanyame anaa sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a wode asi hɔ no da biara da.”
Koma ngakhale Mulungu wathu atapanda kutipulumutsa, tikufuna mudziwe inu mfumu, kuti sitidzatumikira milungu yanu kapena kupembedza fano la golide limene munaliyimika.”
19 Nebukadnessar bo fuu Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego yie, na wampɛ wɔn anim ahwɛ. Ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, wɔmma fononoo no ogya no hyeɛ no nnɔ mmɔho nson.
Pamenepo Nebukadinezara anapsa mtima ndi Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego, ndipo anayipidwa nawo. Iye analamulira kuti ngʼanjo ayitenthetse kasanu ndi kawiri kuposa nthawi zonse,
20 Afei, ɔhyɛɛ nʼakodɔm mu mmarima ahoɔdenfoɔ pa ara no bi sɛ, wɔnkyekyere Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, na wɔnto wɔn ngu fononoo no mu ogyadɛreɛ no mu.
ndipo analamula ena mwa asilikali amphamvu kwambiri mʼgulu lake lankhondo kuti amange Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego ndi kuwaponya mʼngʼanjo ya moto.
21 Enti, wɔkyekyeree saa nkurɔfoɔ yi a wɔhyehyɛ wɔn ntwontwo, wɔn ntadeɛ, wɔn mmotire ne wɔn ntoma papee, too wɔn guu fononoo ogya a ɛrederɛ no mu.
Choncho amuna awa, atavala mikanjo yawo, mabuluku, nduwira ndi zovala zina zonse, anamangidwa ndi kuponyedwa mʼngʼanjo ya moto.
22 Na ɛsiane ɔhene no abufutrasoɔ ne ɔhyɛ a ama fononoo no adɔ hyeehyeehye aborosoɔ no enti, asraafoɔ a wɔde Sadrak, Mesak, ne Abednego regu fononoo no mu no wuwuu ogyaframa no ano.
Tsono popeza lamulo la mfumu linali lofulumiza, ngʼanjo inatenthetsedwa kowirikiza mwakuti malawi ake anapha asilikali amene ananyamula Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego,
23 Na Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego a wɔakyekyere wɔn pampee no hwehwee ogya fononoo a ɛrederɛ no mu.
ndipo anyamata atatuwa, ali chimangidwire, anagwera mʼngʼanjo ya moto.
24 Nebukadnessar gu so rehwɛ no, prɛko pɛ, ɔhuri teaam ahodwirie so guu nʼafotufoɔ no so sɛ, “Ɛnnyɛ mmarima baasa na yɛkyekyeree wɔn too wɔn guu fononoo no mu?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Aane, Nana, yɛyɛɛ saa pɛpɛɛpɛ.”
Kenaka mfumu Nebukadinezara anadabwa ndipo anafunsa nduna zake kuti, “Kodi sanali amuna atatu amene anamangidwa ndi kuponyedwa mʼmoto?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ndi zoonadi, mfumu.”
25 Nebukadnessar teaam sɛ. “Monhwɛ! Mehunu nnipa baanan a biribiara nkyekyeree wɔn sɛ wɔnenam ogya no mu. Egya dɛreɛ no nhyee wɔn. Onipa a ɔtɔ so ɛnan no te sɛ anyame ba bi!”
Iye anati, “Taonani! Ndikuona amuna anayi akuyendayenda mʼmoto, osamangidwa ndi osapwetekedwa ndipo wachinayi akuoneka ngati mwana wa milungu.”
26 Na Nebukadnessar twe bɛnee fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no ɛpono ano, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛtumi, teaam sɛ, “Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn asomfoɔ, momfiri mmra! Mommra ha!” Ɛno enti, Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego firii ogya no mu baeɛ.
Pamenepo Nebukadinezara anayandikira pa khomo langʼanjo ya moto ndi kufuwula kuti, “Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego, atumiki a Mulungu Wammwambamwamba, tulukani! Bwerani kuno!” Ndipo Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego anatuluka mʼmoto,
27 Afei, ahenemma, mpanimfoɔ, amradofoɔ ne afotufoɔ bɛtwaa wɔn ho hyiaeɛ, na wɔhunuu sɛ, ogya no anka wɔn. Wɔn tirinwi mpo ho anka. Na wɔn ntadeɛ anhye. Na wisie mpo mmɔn wɔn ho.
ndipo akalonga, akazembe, abwanamkubwa ndi nduna zamfumu anasonkhana mowazungulira. Anaona kuti moto sunatenthe matupi awo ngakhale tsitsi kumutu kwawo silinapse; zovala zawo sizinapse, ndipo sankamveka fungo la moto.
28 Afei, Nebukadnessar kaa sɛ, “Ayɛyie nka Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego Onyankopɔn. Ɔsomaa ne ɔbɔfoɔ, ma wɔbɛgyee nʼasomfoɔ a wɔgye no die. Wɔbuu me ɔhene mmara so, na wɔde wɔn honam maeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a wɔrensom na wɔrensɔre anyame biara gye wɔn Onyankopɔn.
Kenaka Nebukadinezara anati, “Atamandike Mulungu wa Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego, amene anatumiza mngelo wake ndi kupulumutsa atumiki ake! Iwo anakhulupirira Iye ndi kunyozera lamulo la mfumu ndipo anali okonzeka kutaya moyo wawo koposa kutumikira kapena kupembedza mulungu wina aliyense wosakhala Mulungu wawo.
29 Ne saa enti, merehyɛ saa mmara yi sɛ ɔman, nkurɔfoɔ ne kasa ahodoɔ nyinaa mu, obiara a ɔbɛka Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego Onyankopɔn ho abususɛm no, ampa ara wɔbɛtwitwa wɔn mu asinasini na wɔadwiri wɔn afie ama adane wira. Onyame biara nni hɔ a ɔbɛtumi agye nkwa sɛɛ yi.”
Tsono ndikulamula kuti anthu a mitundu ina kaya chiyankhulo china chili chonse amene anganyoze Mulungu wa Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego adulidwe nthulinthuli ndipo nyumba zawo ndidzagwetsa ndi kusandutsa bwinja, popeza palibe Mulungu amene akhoza kupulumutsa mʼnjira yotere.”
30 Afei, Ɔhene Nebukadnessar maa Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego dibea a ɛkorɔn yie wɔ Babiloniaman mu.
Ndipo mfumu Nebukadinezara anakweza pa ntchito Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego mʼchigawo cha Babuloni.
